88.5's were a 'rush' job. At the end of '88 Haro were running out of Sports, so in order to cut production time these were made - no half chrome, no AD990's and no machined headtube or bb.

How much does he want for shipping? USPS is about $60

yeh he said $65 for posting he wants $25 on top of the $110 i've already paid him
to be honest i thought i got a real bargin but is seams more like a fair price now  :-\
what are AD 990's?

It sound's fair at £75. Add paint at about £40 and decals at about £20 and you've got the price of a NOS one.

You'll not make any money on it, but then again, we're not in it for the money are we :-\
